The North Face Clothing

From your local high street to the most inhospitable mountaintops of the greater ranges, you'd be hard-pushed not to notice someone wearing the distinctive, half-dome logo of The North Face. Named after the harshest face of a mountain, the brand has been dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technological advancement in outdoor apparel and equipment ever since the humble opening of the first The North Face store in California's North Beach neighbourhood in 1968. This leaves the user free to focus on pushing their own boundaries outdoors, an attitude which is embodied in their slogan: Never Stop Exploring.

Starting in hiking outerwear, The North Face diversified into everything from ski and snowboard-wear to tents, sleeping bags and trail running kit. These day's their efforts to keep The North Face products at the cutting edge both technologically and aesthetically help maintain a diverse and avid fan base worldwide. From the Summit Series collection, tested in the most extreme conditions on the planet by their elite sponsored athletes, to lifestyle products that will keep you looking fresh in the urban environment, The North Face has something to offer everyone in love with the outdoor lifestyle.

Alongside their in-house proprietary technologies, The North Face also co-operates with some of the biggest independent names in weatherproofing and insulation, amongst others Gore-Tex, Polartec and Primaloft. This further increases the appeal and applications of The North Face products to all manner of users, from the pros, to you and I.
